  1. No Raises for ER Nurses/Staff

    exit96 replied to bagface's topic in Emergency

    Well, I am pessimistic about the whole system. Hers my thoughts: 1st if it is a Unionized work force then the raises are factored in and increases come at set increments. I have only worked Union. I...

  2. Annoying female coworker conversations

    exit96 replied to kool-aide, RN's topic in Men in Nursing

    I beg to differ...females are in the majority, so those topics are the majority, with a few men that favor said topic. I think the only point is that the main topic is usually the family and the kids....

  6. Sexism in nursing

    exit96 replied to RNGuy12's topic in Men in Nursing

    LadyFree28, I actually do agree with you. I seem to see the opposite played out most of the time. Sorry, I'm not real articulate with my points that I am trying to

  7. Sexism in nursing

    exit96 replied to RNGuy12's topic in Men in Nursing

    Can I politely state that, every time I post here someone tries to dismiss my thoughts as "blanket statements." I am trying to talk conceptually, maybe I don't do a good job of it, my apologies. Can...

  8. Sexism in nursing

    exit96 replied to RNGuy12's topic in Men in Nursing

    I am thinking SEXISM. It is interesting to see that, when females are in the Majority-such as Nursing, they act the same way anyone does when they are the Majority. But history has made it very...

  9. ENPC 2014

    exit96 replied to sapmoss's topic in Emergency

    Just took it...great content! Skeptical about the "75%" fail rate. Besides, if one fails the written it can be taken again within 14 days I believe. I had to retake my TNCC written, and it actually...

    exit96 replied to 1fastRN's topic in Emergency

  11. Annoying female coworker conversations

    exit96 replied to kool-aide, RN's topic in Men in Nursing

    Really? Do we need an evidence based study? There are certain traits/behaviors by women, and also certain specific to men. I can think of only a couple men over the YEARS I have worked with that...

  12. Annoying female coworker conversations

    exit96 replied to kool-aide, RN's topic in Men in Nursing

    I agree..a tad harsh. Is there any room to consider that maybe the gals need to give it a rest? Generically speaking, no one should just "suck it up" when someone OVER TALKS about a certain topic. If...

    exit96 replied to MedicalPartisan's topic in Emergency

    My ER sees a lot of Mental Health patients. We have to do a Medical Clearance Exam, labs, and then call Community Mental Health to come and see the patient, and then place them in a facility. The RN...

  20. The "Flirt"

    exit96 posted a topic in Men in Nursing

    The 'Flirt" is on the loose. How many women flirt with you? Not just your customary flirting, but serious double entendre, risque stuff? No I am not trying to incite some sort of ego competition here....

    exit96 replied to DrkCocoMurse215's topic in Men in Nursing

  22. Why more men are needed

    exit96 replied to DrkCocoMurse215's topic in Men in Nursing

    Not! Women can do this as well. I am a father of 3...when was it that my back was more acceptable to ruin than my female coworkers. No one gets lifted in an ergonomic fashion...women can do their own...

    exit96 replied to PapaBearRN's topic in Men in Nursing

    exit96 replied to CNDave's topic in Men in Nursing

    I'm with ya...I play in a band, and several other activities. I used to be a carpenter, lots of tools. I like talking "guy stuff" especially being that I hear the female chatter all day long. And I...
